ok..

so you guys know, we like to tinker quite a bit... so we have a good client (basically a car of our own really).. who wanted to try something after his fpgreen, and he couldnt wait for our own stuff we have coming...

so, we set something up with Tom of ETS...

so, this is a 50 trim build, on an evo ix... stock ecu... previously made apprx 365/335 on our mustang dyno (low reading) at 21 psi.. with injen intake, ebay turboback, perrin fmic, BR ported and coated manifold, green with upgraded actuator, and ic pipes etc...

he wanted to go tubular, and thanks to our boys at Blouch turbo, we can always throw a larger wheel on the 50 trim...

we swapped our 8 MR 6 speed into his IX while it was apart (we needed a 5speed for our time attack car)...

so some swain coating, slightly larger injectors and the following:

ETS tubular manifold, 50 trim turbo, swaintech coating, 680cc injectors, ETS 3.5" FMIC, ETS piping, ETS small battery, ETS 3.5" Turboback....

CBRD lightweight radiator, and CBRD Flash coming soon... but here are some pics of the build, should be done tomorrow...

the car is also getting our Forgeline Racing Wheels and HR coilovers from our project/time attack car...

Here are the pics...

Previous setup.. with our radiator







and some pics of whats going on now..

and the engine ready to go back in... with the 6 speed... cusco twin plate in it.

Looking great so far Chad! As functional as the Swain coatings are I'm really starting to feel the look as well Can't wait to see more build pics!

Tom

 

Can't weight to see what the car does.

Are you changing out different wheels in the turbo? I thought he said something about that.

Stock cams?

 

Your crazy Chad...

 

I still can't believe that shop is still that clean!!! Keep up the good work!!

 

Lookin' good!

 

haha yea.... chad runs a floor scrubber every night to keep it looking boss.

 

Nice . I can see the grin on "J" face

Chad you better wait for me to put that car on the dyno.

Looks awesome! I love the coaing on the manifold. Your going to love the ETS 3.5"

 

Looks awesome, cant wait till I can do all that haha

Got a question, If a customer came in with a dirty car to be worked on, would you refuse him service to prevent your shop from getting dirty

 

Right, messy....

 

I like a messy greasy shop im just weird that way.
